*Suprise Video Release*
“The Quadrant” feat. @thatgracemclean
With @ssssuzzzz on cello, film by @lizsmalls
Captain Ahab directs her ire towards God for keeping her from her purpose, and not delivering her to the white whale.
Grace sang this in one take. We recorded this in 2021 when all my studio had was a few mics and a Scarlett box to its name.
Thank you to all for continuing to stream the album everywhere, it means so much.
One year ago we premiered Kill The Whale with full cast, releasing the full concept album at @joespub , for two oversold nights. It was a high like no other, like the wag of Pip’s tambourine. We’ll do it again soon, we felicitously promise 🫶🏼🐳
Had a beautiful day at @mysticseaportmuseum with the wonderful Melvillean scholar and mariner Mary Bercaw Edwards, who gave us a full tour of the last extant whale ship from the 19th century, the Charles W Morgan. I’ve known Mary for years, and had the pleasure of experiencing this ship with her a few times, and I have been so inspired by her boundless passion for sharing Moby-Dick, and the history of whaling with others. In 2014, she even joined a voyage on board the Charles W Morgan alongside a full crew of 30, even lowering whale boats and rowing among the whales, probably descendants of creatures this ship actually hunted. Let’s hope none of them recognized the stately queen that had been their ancestral adversary. 🐳🐳🐳

Some of you have asked where you can find lyrics to the album — they are pinned to my @reddit profile, in two posts. Still sussing out how to make the lyrics appear on my @spotify and on @genius lyrics with my distributor. But in the meantime, there they are! Link added to bio. XO Daniel
